This PWA can be pinned to the Android home screen and can therefore be launched much like a native app.

The app which provides an immersive experience - right on the phone's browser, while maintaining a small memory footprint, also offers a rich offline experience, allowing for continued engagement even on patchy networks.

It is optimized for fast load times even on a 3G network and is able to load a page in less than two seconds. It also offers infinite scroll and allows users to swipe through content, in a native app-like experience.

Despite its rich content, the app has been optimized to run efficiently on handsets with low memory specifications, via the use of service workers, virtualized views, and efficient cache management techniques.

"As pioneers in the digital content space, we understand different consumer interests and are constantly innovating and using newer technologies to offer a seamless and engaging daily habits destination for regional users," said founder and CEO Dailyhunt, Virendra Gupta.
